Mayor Bloomberg expects to retire having a small soda drink on a no smoking beach…
In trying to express how much sugar there is in soda I found a well known container to put it in perspective.
A 12 ounce soda contains 38 grams of sugar. Or 1.4 ounces. Or a shot glass filled to the very top. To get some feel for that perhaps instead of a soda we should just kick back shots of sugar. How many a day? A 48 ounce big gulp would be 5 shots of sugar. So who thinks that’s a good idea for anyone, yet alone children? Show of hands?
This a microcosm of the problem with the Republicans. Doing the right thing takes a backseat to ideology. And its not just the RIGHT THING that goes in the rumble seat, but common sense as well.
Republicans need their own work of literature, in a book called THE WRONG STUFF.
